    A 30-year old woman hanging out with people who are 20-29?

    That’s extremely predatory, especially with the 29 year olds. A 29 year old is basically just a child, and at the age of 30, she should be well aware of that, despite the coma. It’s creepy and gross for a 30 year old to hang out with a 29 year old. In fact, once you turn 30, you should probably never speak to or look at anyone even slightly younger than yourself, just to be safe. Be sure to say goodbye to any younger siblings before your 30th birthday – you won’t be seeing them for a while. Personally, a 30 year old tried to hang out with me once while I was 29, and it was absolutely devastating. I’m still in therapy because of that, even a decade afterwards. My therapist says I’m making great progress! However, she’s 33 and I’m 39, and my birthday is just about a week from now, so obviously I won’t be able to go back to therapy for the next 7 years or so.

    TIL my wife is a predator. At some point while we were dating, she made the absolutely disgusting move of turning 30 on my sweet, innocent little 29 year old self.

    Oh God. How could I let it get this bad?

      Feels like some kinda ai training. There’s been lots of these on here lately, where hypothetical questions are asked and then 1/2 slight variances of it is asked within hours.

        I think it’s the same idiot who

        A. Think age gaps are wrong.
        B. Think heros are actually villains because they keep their identity a secret or prefer a powered child over a non powered one. And
        C. Thinks rich people don’t date poor people.

        I want to agree with you.

        But there are people who are this stupid and paranoid… i have met them in real life and they talk/think/ask questions just like this.

        they are typically deeply insecure and have a tenuous grasp of reality, often due to having an extremely sheltered upbringing

    a 30 year old woman was hanging out

    Nobody can tell, obviously, until you show a picture of her while she’s hanging there.

    I’m sick of stupid age-gap questions.

    Let’s make it concrete, anything over 18 is ENTIRELY UP TO THE INDIVIDUALS INVOLVED.

    Anyone below 18 IS A FUCKING PEDOPHILE AND SHOULD STOP THEIR SHIT!

      18 being the magic age where you become an adult is a social construct. Maturity comes gradually. I think it’s fine for an over 18 to date an under 18 if they’re close in age and neither is in a position of power over the other

      right, we should also throw anyone under 18 who has sex with anyone else, no matter their age, in jail.
